New. This is a strikingly handsome instrument with dark front and crisp rosette. The head shape is a little different from previous.
All shellac french-polished.

Comments:

Christopher Dean's guitars need little introduction of course. Mainly making with spruce fronts, Christopher produces one like this with cedar top occasionally - but when he does so ... Boy - are they good! Having the richness, warmth and strength of cedar they also have by design or instinct, the clarity and sustain more commonly associated with spruce.
This is an immediately impressive performance instrument full of expressive musical potential, energy and projection, beautifully-made and very handsome.
There you have it.

"Having known Miles for many years now I can say with some authority that dealing with him is a pleasure, due largely to my secure feeling that he, like me, has a genuine love of his subject. Over the years I have always been eager to hear feedback from both Miles, and his customers, and this has helped me greatly to bolster my own passion for the guitar and to refine my work ."
